Where's the scanner in maynooth? Lots of bargains on toys here...

Both long since removed - they were in the toys aisle and in the kitchen/toilet roll aisle before.

Why do they remove them? They did the same in the Killarney store in the past 6 months.

Because they're too useful in finding pricing errors to take double the difference on, I'd guess.

In Maynooth you can use the gun to scan your shopping. Much handier than the wall thing for finding bargains. I once did an entire shelf of toys just standing in front of them

wish they had that in limerick, or the app would work.

Maynooth: the price check scanner is in the clothing section and is working fine (at least it was yesterday anyway).

Ooh, new one to me. Only knew of the two that I mentioned that were removed.

Lego Superheros Avengers (76038?) - €60 something
Lego Movies or superheroes can't rem the exact number - €67

Philips mini-hifi MCM2150 (no bluetooth) - €49.99 down from €199 (naas)

Cars Mack Transporter - €3.83 down from €31.99 naas (no way was it ever worth that much)

Rolson work gloves - 75c naas
Curver Recycling bin half price @ €26

The 43" was €379 before Christmas - I bought one. Now its marked €399 'reduced from €599'

Saw those on display for the first time as they are usually in box and only bigger brand names on display ( an annoying habit of Tesco)
Anyway I can see why.

Let's just say I was amazed/astonished/shocked at just how flexible/flimsy/wobbly the tv felt. A stiff breeze and you'd have a curved tv.

On the other hand they may have been going for this

Also in Tesco Tralee Manor for the same price. The plastic casing feels a bit light and flimsy but the inclusion of the batteries makes it a decent buy.

Picked up one for the car - definitely recommend it for that purpose.

Anyone seen these in Killarney store? I have looked but maybe was looking in the wrong place.

Tesco sometimes have the Energizer torches with house lightbulbs and plugs, *away* from the Energizer stand, even if there is a full Energizer stand nearby! ..as is the case in Ballybrack (South County Dublin).

Cheers, I must have a better look next time I'm in the store.

Plenty of those energizer head torches in Newbridge Kildare. Same price €2.10
